Wow, any updates?
I know this mushroom is becoming a topic of interest lately with the scientific community.

I have a few thoughts.
First, if the ones in Thailand or China were the same, don't you think the people would have made note of the aphrodisiac affects from them??

Also, what if this thing gets out into the public, or even places like androitics single out and sell the molecule(s) responsible for the orgasmic affect? It seems to me that this would sort of cause an issue. Don't get me wrong, I want to get my hands on it as much as the next guy, but I can totally see men wearing the scent as they walk in public and constantly around them women are either getting super aroused or orgasming in their pants. It seems to me it would cause a major distraction, like for students or women on the job... How will women be able to focus and get things done?

Or for example, what if 'Jane' is forced to constantly have orgasms all day to the point of exhaustion because her co-worker 'billy' decided to wear his 'phallus pheromone' everyday to work..?

I mean, yes in the bedroom it would be the holy grail, but there will be people who abuse it... And I can totally see disaster on the way..

I think that even if you single out the molecule responsible for it, the side-effect can be that you will get a lot of angry guys at you. It is "too early to tell", similar with the hedione. Yes, it can cause a lot of arousal, but I think it comes to full effect in combination with other products that also stimulate that arousal. I think its best to single out the molecule (or the molecules) that cause this behavior, then find a way to get rid of the "stench" and then synthesize it. That way you know if its a valuable source or not. It could be a real bug attactractant, which is not the effect you want as a man (smell like rotten food).

Think of it as the Durian. Most people just don't like it because of its smell of rotten fruit, however the fruit is making people estatic when eaten. I think its the same thing here: It might be the worst smell ever, and girls actually repel you even though it smells orgasmic.

I have read some article about magic mushroom being used as a aphrodisiac. It triggers your sexual drive as the skin becomes more sensitive to different sensations, it?s more vulnerable to pleasurable sensations. Although magic mushrooms themselves don?t increase libido, they make one more susceptible to sex by making skin contact more pleasurable.
